Inside Russell Wilson and Ciara’s Showstopping Properties

This post was originally published on this site

For two individuals with demanding careers that keep them constantly on the move, Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson and Ciara, Grammy-winning vocalist and Wilson’s wife of seven years, are incredibly disciplined when it comes to maintaining routine and ritual in their home life. “I’m such a homebody,” Ciara told GQ in a 2021 cover story, adding that she and Wilson had developed a set of “fun rules” for how long they’re willing to be apart. (At the time of the interview, the couple had set 10 days as their limit; they schedule a date night once a week.) The pair also pray together every morning, regardless of whether they’re waking up in Washington, California, or Denver, where they most recently purchased a home after Wilson was traded to the Broncos in 2022. “Every morning we wake up together it’s a blessing,” the athlete told GQ. And while they’ve been known for keeping a relatively low profile (they managed to keep their elaborate wedding in England a secret until after the fact), they’ve offered up small glimpses into their lives together outside of the limelight over the years, including details about the places that they’ve called home. Below, we’ve rounded up some of the spots that the power couple and their growing brood have resided in—with one bonus property that served as the ultimate surprise for Wilson’s beloved mother.

2006

A few years after Ciara broke through on the music scene with her hit studio album Goodies, she purchased a condo in Atlanta for a reported $680,000. Little is publicly known about the pad, except that the singer held onto it for nearly a decade before reportedly selling it for $520,000 in 2015, the same year she and Wilson bought a Washington State home together.

San Diego

Wilson has long owned a home just outside of San Diego in Rancho Santa Fe, where the athlete often hosts unofficial practices in the offseason. It’s unclear what, if any, ties the family has to the locale other than an affinity for the home and surrounding area. According to reports, the property spans eight acres and used to be an equestrian estate, which made it particularly well-suited for Wilson: He converted the original horse arena into a football field where he and his teammates have gathered since the quarterback’s second season in the NFL, in 2013. According to ESPN, the field is surrounded by palm trees and even has Wilson’s “RW3” logo painted in the middle of it. “We have the best jobs in the world: We get to play football for a living,” Wilson told ESPN. “We get to spend time together. It’s a lot of time, a lot of effort, a lot of focus, a lot of long days, long nights, early mornings. All of those things add up, even in the offseason.” It appears that the San Diego area is still a home base for the pair and their family—they called it their “home away from home” in 2021.
